La Gettonietra (French Audio) + English subtitles).mp4 Hello from fantastic Naples. Today, I'm going to talk to you about the coin-operated elevator: the "gettoneria". If you've ever been to Naples, I think you've seen them in elevators. It's a small box attached inside the elevator cabin. This prevents waste caused by elevator use. And each time a person takes the elevator, they insert the coin, then wait for about 10/15 seconds. They press the button for the floor they need to go to. Thirty years ago, the coins used were 10 lire and 50 lire coins.

Now, it's five, 10, or 50 euro cents for the condominium charges at the end of the year. The amount collected is then deducted from the elevator maintenance fees. So, it's still relatively interesting for the residents of each building. Nowadays, this system is becoming less and less common.The title of the video you've just seen is: "How Neapolitans save on condominium elevator costs". Why does the "gettoniera" save Neapolitans money?
